The replication dataset includes the data files containing the raw data reported in the article and the R-script that reproduces the analyses reported.

Data files (in CSV-format)
----------

1) "dataverse_data_arrangement_coordinates_processed.csv"

Data file with the output for the arrangement task (programmed in E-Basic, implemented in E-Prime, Experiment code available from the first author under request).

Variable description:

Subj_ID: Subject identifier (1-60)
SessionDate: Date in which experiment was run
SessionTime: Time at which experiment was run
Block: Each of the three blocks during which subjects arranged all 32 target items (1-3)
Trial: Indicates the order in which each item was shown; there are 32 trials per block
X: X-coordinate in pixels of the centre of the still which appeared on the screen when subjects placed an item (0-1023)
Y: Y-coordinate in pixels of the centre of the still which appeared on the screen when subjects placed an item (0-767)
Item: Each of the 32 target items (short video animations)
Path: The path followed by both the moving entity and the object it is moving
Manner: The manner in which the agent moves the object combined with the manner in which the object moved
Direction: The horizontal direction of the motion event (left-to-right or right-to-left)
Object: The object moved by the agent
Ground: The background (or landscape) in which the motion event takes place



2) "dataverse_data_subject_info.csv"

Data file with participant information reported in the article.

Variable description:

Subj_ID: Subject identifier (1-60)
Condition: Whether the participant was manner-primed, path-primed or not primed (control)
L2_SelfProfic: Self-rating of a participant's proficiency in their L2 Spanish (min 1, max 7)
L2_Group: Based on L2_SelfProfic participants were considered either high-proficient (>5) or medium (<6)
Sex: The sex of the participant (male, female)
Age: The age (in years) of the participant
ClozeScore: Participants result on a Cloze test (min 0, max 37 points)


3) "dataverse_videopairs.csv"

This file contains, for each pairwise combination of the 32 target videoclips, which components they share (e.g. path, manner, object, etc.) and which ones it doesn't. This file is used in the R-script "analysis.R".


Analysis script (R-file)
------------------------

For the mixed-model analyses the R package lme4 was used version 1.1-7

4) "dataverse_analysis.R"

This script uses the data files above to reproduce the analyses reported in the paper. Be wary of path specifications in all functions that load files from disk, i.e. check the `file` argument in calls to `read.csv()`
